Ta-dah!



Hi guys :)
The weather was lovely today, so i sent out The Bearded Wonder to strim the grass. I don't go near the strimmer. They are dangerous! Ask me how i know... ;)

It was a nice, pottery sort of day, nice enough to wear a skirt, so i went out and attempted to unearth the paving stone path in the middle of the garden, but it is so overgrown i'll need a proper spade to get rid of it all instead of a teeny trowel, which is useless.
I also planted some potatoes from kitchen scraps, whether they will grow or not i have no idea, but fingers firmly crossed! 

I made a strawberry cheesecake thingy, but without the cheese, and i got single cream instead of whipping cream so it was quite sloppy, but it still tastes lovely (Eating it as we speak)



And lastly.... a huge ta-dah moment! 
I finished my cardigan!!!! 

Yes i know it is a top.... it was SUPPOSED to be a cardigan, but i made the panels far too big and, quite frankly, couldn't be bothered to undo them and start again so i sewed one over the other and turned it into a top instead! Which is why the middle panel looks a bit bulky and makes me look pregnant 
(i'm not). I'm calling it a tummy warmer ;) 

What have you been up to today?

      Because last time i tried to use one the wire got caught and i lifted it up to untangle it and didn't realize i still had my finger on the button and pushed it by accident. it ended up cutting into my knee about 20 times and stung like holy hell! I've still got a faint scar lol :)
      Which is why i let the hubby do it :P

    I like it as a top - lovely! Good luck with the potatoes. It is always worth a try - you never know what will happen if you don't give it a go!

Bullet Journalling, Seed Preparing And Yarning Along

Hi guys :) The other day, while scrolling through Pinterest, i came across the idea of a  Bullet Journal   The basic idea is to condense everything into one handy little book, if you click the link it will explain it much more succinctly than me. There's a video too :) This is a great journal for me as i can personalize how i like, everything is in one place and this year i may actually manage to be organized! I created my own little planner from an old hard back book that was falling apart I covered it in pretty wallpaper samples and added a pocket to slide in the blank notebook i got for Christmas And added a little cartoon me :) I am following the idea of the bullet journal for the most part, but the beauty of it is you can personalize it exactly to your needs I created a layout that suited me, with morning, afternoon and evening sections and my own little colour code system at the bottom, though this may change depending on if i find a

Drama!

Hi guys, sorry i haven't been around much this week, i've been a very bad blogging neighbour, but i will try and get around everyone's blogs this evening (This is my new mantra) What a bloody week! First, i was awoken by the Bearded Wonder in the early hours on Sunday morning having chest pains and violently shivering, my poor hubby has a heart murmur, so this was doubly worrying, though i distinctly remember saying "what do you expect me to do about it?" thinking he was just cold (i'm not a great thinker when i've just woken up lol) then grumpily told him to go make me a cup of tea to get his circulation going , then i sort of got my act together, 999 was called and i was instructed to give him 4 aspirin and wait for the ambulance to turn up. They came and checked him over and hooked him up to the heart monitor thingy whilst i rushed about like a headless chicken packing a bag, fully expecting to go to hospital, only to be told

Round Up

Hi guys, Happy New Year :D Would you believe it'll be a year in late Feb since we moved here, where did that go? And what a year! I've made so many new friends, in real life and through blogging, and i was kept busier than i ever expected to be. For which i am eternally grateful. When i first started this blog i had a list of things that i wanted to learn and do throughout the year Some of them i have done, but a lot seem to have fallen by the wayside, so i am going to keep the list and add to it for this year The Old List Crafts and Home Master the knitting machine- nope, but in my defense i need 4ply yarn which i am still looking for a bargain on. Make jumpers/socks/blankets etc from said machine- As above Crochet more clothes and things for the home- Check- i am currently crocheting a blanket, and have made a few small things including Christmas decorations Spin yarn-  Check! Weave-not yet, i have the kit, but just need to find the right p
